Five populations of Xenopsylla cheopis exhibit a chromosome complement of 2n = 17, X1X2Y (male), and 2n = 18, X1X1X2X2 (female). A detailed analysis of populations of X. astia from Bombay and Trivandrum led to the identification of two distinct cytotypes which hybridisation studies indicated were sibling species. These are referred to as X. astia with a diploid chromosome number of 2n = 18, X1X2X3Y (male), and 2n = 20, X1X1X2X2X3X3 (female) and X. prasadii with 2n = 10, X1X2Y1Y2 (male), and 2n = 10 X1X1X2X2 (female). It is proposed that X. prasadii is derived from X. astia through translocation/fusion events since the average total chromosome lengths are remarkably similar in all three species. 相似文献

Summary A structural X chromosome abnormality was found in the karyotype of a tall patient with gonadal dysgenesis and with no extragenital anomalies. Based on her mother's karyotype, which showed a pericentric inversion of the X chromosome: 46,X,inv(X)(p22q24), as well as from G and R banding, we concluded that the abnormal X chromosome of our patient was a recombinant chromosome that had originated as a result of one crossing over in the inversion loop during gametogenesis in her mother. The recombinant X chromosome had a partial deletion of Xq and a partial duplication of Xp: 46,X,rec(X),dup p,inv(X)(p22q24). After BUDR incorporation, the abnormal X chromosome of the patient and that of her mother showed a late replication. The karyotype-phenotype correlation and the nonrandom inactivation of the inverted X chromosome in the mother are discussed. 相似文献

Here we describe our comparative studies on two types of X chromosomes, namely X(M) and X(SM,) of the mandarin vole (Microtus mandarinus). By chromosome G- and C-banding analysis, we have found that two different types of X chromosomes exist in mandarin voles. The two types of X chromosomes present two different G- and C-banding patterns: the X(M) chromosome is a longer metacentric X chromosome which is C-band negative; and the X(SM) is a shorter submetacentric X chromosome which has one C-band at the centromere and another one at the middle part of the short arm. The X(SM) has 6 G-bands including one on the kinetochore, one in the middle of the short arm, and four on the long arm. The X(M) has 7 G-bands including one on the kinetochore, two on the short arm, and four on the long arm. We have further found that female voles can be grouped into three types based on the composition of the X chromosome but the male voles have only one type. The three female groups are: (1) female voles (X(M)X(SM)), in which the two X chromosomes are different, the longer one is metacentric and the shorter is submetacentric; (2) female vole (X(SM)X(SM)), in which the two X chromosomes are both submetacentric; (3) female vole (X(M)O), in which there is only one X chromosome that is metacentric. Surprisingly, we have never found female voles with X(M)X(M), females with X(SM)O or males with X(M)Y. We hypothesize that the X(SM) chromosome is derived from the X(M) through its breakage and re-joining. The paper also discusses the formation of X(M)O females. 相似文献

The principal acoustic characteristics of the mating calls of 12 species and sub-species of the genus Xenopus were determined: X. laevis laevis, X. laevis petersi, X. laevis victorianus, X. gilli, X. muelleri, X. borealis, X. clivii, X. fraseri, X. ruwenzoriensis, X. wittei, X. vestitus and X. tropicalis . These calls are very specific, especially among species whose hybrids are particularly viable in the laboratory. Twin species have not been discovered. Most of the species emit calls with high harmonic frequencies of 16 kHz; these frequencies reach 80 and 150 kHz in X. I. laevis and X. ruwenzoriensis , the ultra-sound level. This was a previously unknown phenomenon in the Batrachians. 相似文献

This paper describes the single channel properties of a series of synthetic analogues of gramicidin A, where all four tryptophans are replaced either by tyrosine or by several O-protected (benzyl, methyl, ethyl or t-butyl) derivatives. It is shown that, although all analogues bear similar dipole moment on their side-chains, the conductance depends on the hydrophobicity of these protecting groups. An analysis of the conductance data suggests that the conductance is governed by the binding process and a possible explanation, based on conformational considerations, is proposed.Abbreviations GA

Wild-type ORK Drosophila melanogaster males were given an exposure of 3000 R X-radiation. Mature sperm were then sampled by mating to X.Y/X.Y, X.Y/X, or X/X females that carried markers on the second and third chromosomes for the detection of induced autosomal translocations. Two pairs of maternal stocks were used and heterozygous X.Y/X females were obtained by making both reciprocal crosses. The highest frequencies of induced translocations were obtained with X/X females. In one series these frequencies are higher than those obtained with either X.Y/X or X.Y/X.Y females. In the other series a uniform frequency of translocations was obtained with all types of female, except for one of the two types of heterozygous female, which gave lower frequencies. The experiments have provided data which show that the addition of Y-chromosomes to the maternal genome does not have a specific effect on the recovery of induced paternal autosomal translocations. Maternal Y-chromosomes increased the proportions of fertile F1 males, this effect being consistent in direction but varying in degree. 相似文献

The effect of divalent metal cations on the inhibition of human coagulation factor Xa by plasma proteinase inhibitors 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The inactivation of human coagulation factor Xa by the plasma proteinase inhibitors alpha 1-antitrypsin, antithrombin III and alpha 2-macroglobulin in purified systems was found to be accelerated by the divalent cations Ca2+, Mn2+ and Mg2+. The rate constant for the inhibition of factor Xa by antithrombin III rose from 2.62 X 10(4) M-1 X min-1 in the absence of divalent cations to a maximum of 6.40 X 10(4) M-1 X min-1 at 5 mM Ca2+, 8.10 X 10(4) M-1 X min-1 at 5 mM Mn2+, with a slight decrease in rate at higher cation concentrations. Mg2+ caused a gradual rise in rate constant to 5.65 X 10(4) M-1 X min-1 at 20 mM. The rate constant for the inhibition of factor Xa by alpha 1-antitrypsin in the absence of divalent cations was 5.80 X 10(3) M-1 X min-1. Ca2+ increased the rate to 1.50 X 10(4) M-1 X min-1 at 5 mM and Mn2+ to 2.40 X 10(4) M-1 X min-1 at 6 mM. The rate constant for these cations again decreased at higher concentrations. Mg2+ caused a gradual rise in rate constant to 1.08 X 10(4) M-1 X min-1 at 10 mM. The rate constant for the factor Xa-alpha 2-macroglobulin reaction was raised from 6.70 X 10(3) M-1 X min-1 in the absence of divalent cations to a maximum of 4.15 X 10(4) M-1 X min-1 at 4 mM Ca2+, with a decrease to 3.05 X 10(4) M-1 at 10 mM. These increases in reaction rate were correlated to the binding of divalent cations to factor Xa by studying changes in the intrinsic fluorescence and dimerization of factor Xa. The changes in fluorescence suggested a conformational change in factor Xa which may be responsible for the increased rate of reaction, whilst the decrease in rate constant at higher concentrations of Ca2+ and Mn2+ may be due to factor Xa dimerization. 相似文献

Four new cases of translocations involving the X chromosome are reported. The first is a balanced t(1;X) observed in an abnormal girl. In most of the cells, the normal X is inactivated. The second case is a woman with oligomenorrhea, who has had two spontaneous abortions. She carries an umbalanced t(X-autosome). In all cells, the abnormal X, including the autosomal segment, is inactivated. The third and fourth cases are a mother, and her son. The mother has oligomenorrhea, carries a t(X,X), and has a karyotype of 46,X,+der t(X;X) and that of her son is 47,XY,+der t(X;X) and shows behavioral abnormalities. The abnormal X chromosome is inactivated in all the cells analyzed. 相似文献

The P2X purinergic receptor channels (P2XRs) differ among themselves with respect to the rates of desensitization during prolonged agonist stimulation. Here we studied the desensitization of recombinant channels by monitoring the changes in intracellular free Ca(2+) concentration in cells stimulated with ATP, the native and common agonist for all P2XRs. The focus in our investigations was on the relevance of the P2XR C terminus in controlling receptor desensitization. When expressed in GT1 cells, the P2XRs desensitized with rates characteristic to each receptor subtype: P2X(1)R = P2X(3)R > P2X(2b)R > P2X(4)R > P2X(2a)R > P2X(7)R. A slow desensitizing pattern of P2X(2a)R was mimicked partially by P2X(3)R and fully by P2X(4)R when the six-amino acid sequences of these channels located in the cytoplasmic C terminus were substituted with the corresponding arginine 371 to proline 376 sequence of P2X(2a)R. Changing the total net charge in the six amino acids of P2X(4)R to a more positive direction also slowed the receptor desensitization. On the other hand, substitution of arginine 371-proline 376 sequence of P2X(2a)R with the corresponding sequences of P2X(1)R, P2X(3)R, and P2X(4)R increased the rate of receptor desensitization. Furthermore, heterologous polymerization of wild-type P2X(2a)R and mutant P2X(3)R having the C-terminal six amino acids of P2X(2a)R at its analogous position resulted in a functional channel whose desensitization was significantly delayed. These results suggest that composition of the C-terminal six-amino acid sequence and its electrostatic force influence the rate of receptor desensitization. 相似文献

The tree mouse Vandeleuria o. oleracea has an odd diploid chromosome complement (2n = 29 female/male) accompanied by a unique multiple sex-chromosome mechanism (X1X2Ymale/X1X1X2female). In the present paper the sex chromosomes have been identified unequivocally with the help of G-banding and DNA replication patterns which confirm our earlier suggestion that the X1 is smaller in size than the simple mammalian X, and also that the combined sizes of the X1 and X2 (3-8 and 1-7 per cent respectively) approximate to the size of the conservative mammalian X (5 per cent). It is proposed that the mammalian X has attained a minimum functional size so that further reduction is not tolerated. 相似文献

Purinergic receptors (P2XRs) activate and desensitize in response to the binding of extracellular nucleotides in a receptor- and ligand-specific manner, but the structural bases of their ligand preferences and channel kinetics have been incompletely characterized. Here we tested the hypothesis that affinity of agonists for binding domain accounts for a ligand-specific desensitization pattern. We generated chimeras using receptors with variable sensitivity to ATP in order: P2X(4)R > P2X(2a)R = P2X(2b)R P2X(7)R. Chimeras having the ectodomain Ile(66)-Tyr(310) sequence of P2X(2)R and Val(61)-Phe(313) sequence of P2X(7)R in the backbone of P2X(4)R were expressed but were non-functioning channels. P2X(2a) + X(4)R and P2X(2b) + X(4)R chimeras having the Val(66)-Tyr(315) ectodomain sequence of P2X(4)R in the backbones of P2X(2a)R and P2X(2b)R were functional and exhibited increased sensitivity to ligands as compared with both parental receptors. These chimeras also desensitized faster than parental receptors and in a ligand-nonspecific manner. However, like parental P2X(2b)R and P2X(2a)R, chimeric P2X(2b) + X(4)R desensitized more rapidly than P2X(2a) + X(4)R, and the rate of desensitization of P2X(2a)+X(4)R increased by substituting its Arg(371)-Pro(376) intracellular C-terminal sequence with the Glu(376)-Gly(381) sequence of P2X(4)R. These results indicate the relevance of interaction between the ectodomain and flanking regions around the transmembrane domains on ligand potency and receptor activation. Furthermore, the ligand potency positively correlates with the rate of receptor desensitization but does not affect the C-terminal-specific pattern of desensitization. 相似文献

Detection of P2X purinergic receptors on human B lymphocytes 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
B lymphocytes are known to synthesise the P2X7 subtype of the P2X purinergic receptor family; however, the identification of the other six P2X subtypes on these cells has been limited by the absence of specific antibodies. In this study, we used a panel of anti-P2X polyclonal antibodies and confocal microscopy to examine the presence of each P2X receptor on human B lymphocytes. We observed that P2X1, P2X2, P2X4 and P2X7 subtypes, but not P2X3, P2X5 and P2X6 subtypes, are present on B lymphocytes. 相似文献

A maximum parsimony tree of 21 complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences belonging to haplogroup X and the survey of the haplogroup-associated polymorphisms in 13,589 mtDNAs from Eurasia and Africa revealed that haplogroup X is subdivided into two major branches, here defined as “X1” and “X2.” The first is restricted to the populations of North and East Africa and the Near East, whereas X2 encompasses all X mtDNAs from Europe, western and Central Asia, Siberia, and the great majority of the Near East, as well as some North African samples. Subhaplogroup X1 diversity indicates an early coalescence time, whereas X2 has apparently undergone a more recent population expansion in Eurasia, most likely around or after the last glacial maximum. It is notable that X2 includes the two complete Native American X sequences that constitute the distinctive X2a clade, a clade that lacks close relatives in the entire Old World, including Siberia. The position of X2a in the phylogenetic tree suggests an early split from the other X2 clades, likely at the very beginning of their expansion and spread from the Near East. 相似文献

Nine species of Xylaria were collected in Taiwan from nests of Odontotermes formosanus, the only known macrotermitine termite in Taiwan. These include six newly described species, X. acuminatilongissima, X. atrodivaricata, X. brunneovinosa, X. griseosepiacea, X. intraflava and X. ochraceostroma, and three previously known species, X. cirrata, X. escharoidea and X. nigripes. We obtained cultures and ITS sequences from the nine species found in Taiwan and describe anamorphs for eight of them. Before the current study teleomorph-anamorph connections in the Xylaria species associated with termite nests have been established unequivocally in X. escharoidea only. Xylaria angulosa, X. fimbriata, X. kedahae, X. micrura, X. radicans, X. reinkingii and X. tolosa also are considered and annotated because they were reported to grow on ground and likely are associated with termite nests. Epitypifications are made for X. cirrata, X. escharoidea and X. nigripes. Xylaria sanchezii is considered a nomen dubium. Photographs are presented for most of the aforementioned species. A dichotomous key to 25 Xylaria species growing on termite nests or ground also is given. 相似文献

Modulation of amyloid precursor protein (APP) metabolism plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. The phosphotyrosine-binding/protein interaction (PTB/PI) domain of X11alpha, a neuronal cytosolic adaptor protein, binds to the YENPTY sequence in the cytoplasmic carboxyl terminus of APP. This interaction prolongs the half-life of APP and inhibits Abeta40 and Abeta42 secretion. X11alpha/Mint-1 has multiple protein-protein interaction domains, a Munc-18 interaction domain (MID), a Cask/Lin-2 interaction domain (CID), a PTB/PI domain, and two PDZ domains. These X11alpha protein interaction domains may modulate its effect on APP processing. To test this hypothesis, we performed a deletion analysis of X11alpha effects on metabolism of APP(695) Swedish (K595N/M596L) (APP(sw)) by transient cotransfection of HEK 293 cells with: 1) X11alpha (X11alpha-wt, N-MID-CID-PTB-PDZ-PDZ-C), 2) amino-terminal deletion (X11alpha-DeltaN, PTB-PDZ-PDZ), 3) carboxyl-terminal deletion (X11alpha-DeltaPDZ, MID-CID-PTB), or 4) deletion of both termini (PTB domain only, PTB). The carboxyl terminus of X11alpha was required for stabilization of APP(sw) in cells. In contrast, the amino terminus of X11alpha was required to stimulate APPs secretion. X11alpha, X11alpha-DeltaN, and X11alpha-PTB, but not X11alpha-DeltaPDZ, were effective inhibitors of Abeta40 and Abeta42 secretion. These results suggest that additional protein interaction domains of X11alpha modulate various aspects of APP metabolism. 相似文献

Gonadal development and birth weight in X*X and X*Y females of the wood lemming, Myopus schisticolor
A quantitative histological analysis of ovaries from 8- to 10-day-old wood lemmings revealed significant differences between females with X*Y and X*X sex chromosome constitutions. The ovarian volume of X*Y females was on average 57% of X*X, and the number of oocytes was less than half in X*Y compared to X*X. However, the frequency of growing oocytes in relation to the total number was 6.5% for X*Y compared to 3.0% for X*X. Oogenesis in X*Y wood lemmings resembles in many respects that of mice heterozygous for certain translocations and with tertiary trisomy (Ts31H), and those with X0 monosomy. The fertility in X*Y wood lemmings is not reduced. On the contrary, X*Y females have a higher reproductive fitness than X*X and XX. This is discussed in relation to the present findings. The body weight at birth was 8% higher in X*Y than in X*X. 相似文献
